Jeff Bezos & Lauren Sanchez are 'Livid' about Charlize Theron's ruthless criticism of their wedding

“Here in Los Angeles, in the US and across the globe, we’re moving backwards fast,” Theron said. “Immigration policy has destroyed the lives of families, not criminals; women’s rights are becoming less and less every day; queer and trans lives are increasingly being erased; and gender-based violence is on the rise.”

She joined a list of other A-listers who lined up to criticize the couple, whose wedding sparked anti-capitalist protests in Venice. Katie Couric shared her distaste for Sanchez’s wedding dress in a since-deleted Instagram comment, which reportedly read, “Welcome to the eighties — when big hair and conspicuous consumption ruled. Apparently tacky is back.”

Outspoken comedian Rosie O’Donnell also had some thoughts to share in a June 29 Substack post. “The BEZOS wedding, it turned my stomach. Seeing all these billionaires gathering in the gross excess of it all,” O’Donnell wrote. “Is Oprah friends with Jeff Bezos? Really — how is that possible? He treats his employees with disdain. By any metric he is not a nice man.”

Others, like Mia Farrow and Olivia Munn, turned their attention towards Bezos’ ex-wife, MacKenzie Scott, praising her for her philanthropy in the years since her expensive divorce from the Blue Origin founder.

Bezos and Sanchez have not commented on the backlash against their wedding.

Good - somehow I think she'll recover from not going to any SpaceX launches anymore.

Hope they get constant criticism and disrespect everywhere they go for the rest of their lives. Same for Zuckerburg and Musk and Andreason and the whole tech Mafia.

What did they expect? It was tone deaf and vulgar.

It only makes me like Charlize even more.

Like Charlize gives a fuck. Besides, she has a lucrative deal with Netflix, so it's not like Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. can do anything to her.

And Charlize is way more attractive and natural than Dirty Sanchez.

Maybe they should stop being such inhuman cunts then

I'm glad she called out those two Trump asskissers

The entire guest list was comprised of vulgarians.

Did she explicitly make a connection between the issues she was discussing and the wedding? Is the text of her speech reproduced anywhere?

Because it doesn’t sound like a big deal to me. She made a light hearted joke and then moved on to the topics at hand. And even if she did go after them, I doubt Bezos and his new wife give a shit.

That woman looks like a beast.

[quote]the newlyweds have now banned Theron from attending their future events, including Blue Origin launches

Oh no. That sounds so awful.

Don’t discount the bravery. The reason no one dares criticize these guys is because it takes away a major avenue of employment, especially with this tech behemoths expanding in the entertainment space.

Her asking price benefits from multiple bitters, and she has taken out of the bidding.

Good for Charlize!

Shut up, Matt. The secondhand embarrassment is real.

Bezos and his trashy looking wife can fuck all the way off. His riches are beyond obscene, and he fuels an oligarchic power structure that wants people to “auto-genocide” (die in deaths of despair). He gleefully described telling his employees he wants them scares. If I had the power to wish him to a cornfield and dissolve Amazon, I would.

… scared.

Why can't rich women get natural looking implants and fillers?

I’ve seen porn stars more fresh-faced than this grimey cum bucket.

Yeah, good luck getting to be a real astronaut like me now, Charlize!

Hey, it's a free country and they didn't break any laws, live and let live.

It's their lives, what's it to you?

Second marriages should take place at the courthouse and be announced after the fact to family and friends with a card that merely states the names of the newly wedded and the date. Anything else is tacky

I dont believe this BECAUSE I'll bet they dont care about being viewed as anything other than a force for evil in the world. They're not only fine with it, they lean into it. Any publicity is good publicity with this lot.

I hope all the fake altruists that attended (DiCap, Ozemprah) get cancelled to oblivion. It's the ones that pretend to be something other than rich, star fucking vulgarians that deserve real ire.

I wonder if any of them had family or “before” friends in attendance. It just reeked of a boondoggle. I bet they report the whole shebang as a corporate expense and tax write off. Slimy fuckers.

Well, I know SOMEONE who won't be getting her Amazon deliveries anymore!

I regularly remind myself that Lauren Sanchez would not look or dress that way if Jeff found them repulsive. This is what he wants, I don't know why, I don't understand the male mind.

I know you're joking, r25, but seriously, since Amazon has existed, I think I've used them, at most, 4 times.

Who cares? Well, I point that out because I'm always surprised at co-workers and friends who mention to me that order from Amazon and seem to get 3 or 4 deliveries a month, probably more.

It's possible to exist without being an Amazon customer.

I don't whether or not Bezos and Sanchez are "livid."

All I know is that I thought having personal financial wealth amounting to several billions of dollars means that, short of harmful defamatory remarks, you don't have to notice or care about whatever somebody else says about you and your weirdly lavish wedding.

R26 - I disagree. I think when she was the wife of one of the biggest agents in Hollywood, she had to dress understated and tastefully.

I believe she dresses this way because a) she likes it and thinks she looks good and b) it gives her a lot of press attention. Behind a lot of this is her being in the spotlight and having the bucks to throw around and be a player in the industry.

Bezos doesn't know shit about Hollywood or that world - she knows everything and everybody. She is his ticket to the inside, cool-kid crowd of Hollywood elite.

Lastly - BOTH of them dress in clothes way too tight for them - and the only people I've seen dress like that as a couple are swingers. So that's the 3rd element - I honestly believe she procures women for him and does 3 ways and other things.

Something Mackenzie Scott would never do. There's no way Bezos is telling her to dress like a hooker - that's all her - and she is dressing Bezos now.

"Besides, she has a lucrative deal with Netflix"

Not anymore..

those tits are awful looking

I respect they called this out. Unlike charlatan Oprah Winfrey who masqueraded as some of feminist self-help guru who cares more about a brand and accumulating wealth.

Some sort*

THATS what they’re upset about? All the money in the world and such thin skin.

"He treats his employees with disdain. By any metric he is not a nice man.”

I think Rosie gets to the meat of why Bezos is so contemptible. It's not really the conspicuous but the fact that he's so miserly and anti-labor while being flashy.

I find it interesting she compared it to the 80s. I’ve either thought that or the “roaring” 20s.

Sidenote: Why did she go for plastic surgery making her resemble a waked Jayne Mansfield?

I’m sure they’re used to it being public figures

Becky and Sancho suck. I'm glad they're 60 years old. It's not nice to want people to die but what have they done for people lately except be rich and take up value brain space.

[quote]Shut up, Matt. The secondhand embarrassment is real.

Oh Teacakedarling/Prince Ahkeem/whatever you're going by this quarter...you're jealous of the few people that like me. That's sad.

Get help. Seriously - see a counsellor or something.

Who the fuck cares about Bezos and his trophy wife?

Wonder how many agents are getting angry calls:'Why did you sign me up for this?'

Probably r42. "people are going to think I'm some kind of grubby, classless loser!"

And people would be right.

R29 is spot on!!!

I think r42 and r43 are on the money. It's interesting that Eva Longoria, Sanchez's friend, was not pictured at the wedding (that I could tell). The Daily Mail had a spread of her, the husband, and toddler supposedly taken on a Saturday on a beach in Spain. She was practically posing for the paps and the article pointedly said she didn't go to the wedding. Thing is the wedding was on Friday. Spain's a short flight away. Both are possible. Eva's a smart cookie. I suspect she slipped in and out quietly, not wanting to be seen.

Bill Gates was reported to have attended, but I haven't found a picture. He's long known Bezos from Seattle, so there's kind of an obligation. Slipped in and out, apparently .

It was incredibly tone deaf, but they don't live in the real world, so why would it be any different?

She looks like a blow-up doll in that photo with her big lips and fake boobs and he's an ugly bald dickhead who'd struggle to attract anyone if he didn't have money.

An announcement before the weeding that they intended to found a $100 million preservation trust for Venice that would’ve restored and revitalized the local economy AND planned as well as preparing the aging infrastructure for global warming would’ve sufficed.

R29 Yes. She's turned him into the potato we see before us!

[quote]Katie Couric shared her distaste for Sanchez’s wedding dress in a since-deleted Instagram comment, which reportedly read, “Welcome to the eighties — when big hair and conspicuous consumption ruled. Apparently tacky is back.”

Stupid Katie (sitting in her $25 million dollar apartment) scolding other rich people. And then deleting it

katie is and always has been a terrible person

[quote] Stupid Katie (sitting in her $25 million dollar apartment) scolding other rich people. And then deleting it

Yeah. Bezos deserves a lot of criticism but from Katie Couric? She propped up a sex offender and worked for Marissa Mayer.

What sex offender did she prop up?

The Bezos wedding was clearly tacky and over the top. But it’s hard to imagine a celebrity who hasn’t flirted with the line between tasteful and indulgent and most are way over it by most people’s standards. So publicly criticizing Bezos is stupid and hypocritical. Joking about who the cool kids are isn’t, though.

When she gets really old and still tries to rock it like Mae West in her 70s, that's going to be hilariously tacky.

Maybe Charlize was emboldened by her one night stand with a 26 yr old.

I disagree with you, R29. He likes it that she dresses that way. He’s parading her around like that because in his nerd mind it makes him look like a studly guy who “got some” hot stuff. I used to know I guy who did the exact same thing. Nerd, achieved some success (a few million, not like today’s rich guys), dated strippers and then married one. The stripper toned it down when she went to work events in our conservative industry but you could still tell. It’s a thing with some guys.

She knows she’s is dressing over the top, but doesn’t care and might be enjoying the idea of being titillating and looking good (in a way) relative to other women in their mid-fifties. She is also probably taking testosterone, along with estrogen and HGH and who knows what else) and that’s making her horny and reducing her inhibitions. But did she previously dress in a restrained manner? Are the wives of Hollywood agents known for that? I have no idea, but seems unlikely.

You might be right about the swinger stuff and I think you are definitely right about him wanting to hang with the Hollywood crowd. Which is surprising to me. As an average, boring person, it would be exciting for me to hang out with that crown. Maybe. But if I had Bezos money I’d choose my own friends who shared my interests and sense of humor and we’d do low key fun stuff.

Well then you’d be Zuck, R56, and nobody wants that.

[QUOTE]But if I had Bezos money I’d choose my own friends who shared my interests and sense of humor and we’d do low key fun stuff.

Would you really be able to do that with Bezos level wealth, r56? Lots of sharks in that world.

R56, this is your life.

She needs to find herself an air fryer.

The thing that gets me about all these billionaires is that they have all the “fuck you” money in the world, but are so thin-skinned they writhe with fury over any criticism.

That this wedding would strike some people (a LOT of people) as vulgar, ostentatious and “too much” in every way should not be a surprise. They have enough money to laugh and fuck themselves to sleep every night over such slings and arrows.

But no, not only is he the richest man in the world, he wants everyone’s approval and admiration. It’s astonishing to me.

Musk is much more pathetic.

It's the drugs, r62. They disinhibit. I wonder what Musk would be like drug-free. Would he not have cockamamie pursuits like double digit progeny and the desire to colonize Mars? Chronic ketamine use mimics grandiose delusions associated with the psychotic disorders. Or would he just be more focused and ruthless?

Charlize got to fuck a poor 26 year-old, while Lauren has to make do with a 61 year-old who's only attractive because of his money.

Charlize got the better deal.

Agree with all of you

I think they’re swingers. She probably eats pussy like a champ and he likes to watch

They are vulgar and appear to have no sense of purpose. He’s not an elegant figure and doesn’t seem to have any sense of noblesse oblige

And donating money to avoid taxes does not count

Charlize allegedly killed her father. She seems like someone who has a low tolerance for bullshit.

I wouldn't want to be invited to a wedding where I didn't know the bride, groom, or family.

Depends on how good the food and booze is, R67?

🎵 Can you rely on the old man’s money?

I saw that David Geffen, Barry Diller and professional ass-kisser Derek Blasberg were at the wedding.

Was the Duchess of Sucksass there?

Was Diane with Barry?

Anyone watch Succession? Well, the oldest son asks the protagonist (Logan Roy) for a “little cash” - $100 million dollars. Logan was like all right, as long as you drop out of the presidential election. Like $100 million was hardly anything

I know it’s just a show, but the writing on this show was excellent.

I think this wedding cost $50 million. For these fuckers, $50M is peanuts. Absolutely nothing. They probably thought they were being very frugal and prudent

They have no clue about ordinary people.

[quote]he's an ugly bald dickhead who'd struggle to attract anyone if he didn't have money

He's not handsome but he's hot, even at his age - he could have his pick of guys on Scruff or Sniffies.

Correct, R29.

This couple are advertising their wares, and I don’t believe for one minute that it’s only women who are being invited into their boudoir.

Looks like Lauren is also really into the ‘lights, camera, ACTION!’ aesthetic.

Meh?

They have fuck you money, & really, REALLY dgaf what others think of them anymore.

[quote]They have fuck you money, & really, REALLY dgaf what others think of them anymore.

This statement is kind of at odds with the thread title.

You don’t believe that tripe, do you, R76?

And one of the richest men in the history of the world gives a lavish wedding celebration with the richest and most powerful people on the planet as his guests, and yet they care about what someone thinks? That's just so bizarre to me.

[quote] I believe she dresses this way because a) she likes it and thinks she looks good...

You're right R29 -- there is a class/cohort/stratum of people (mostly women) for whom plastic surgery is not enough. It has to be visible plastic surgery, with outsized lips, exaggerated cheeks, blindingly white teeth, boobs that look like they're going to explode, overly coiffed heads of hair, etc. It's centered in a few areas of the country (ahem, Miami, cough cough Los Angeles) but they're everywhere, though to our credit it is a phenomenon rarely seen in New England.

Oh, the trials of the underprivileged!

I wondered the same, r24, and came to the conclusion that most of those "before" people left when Mackenzie did.

Jeff only hangs with vulgarians and fake cunts now. Nobody who knows him or likes him

[quote] THATS what they’re upset about? All the money in the world and such thin skin.

DONALD J. TRUMP.

[quote] I wouldn't want to be invited to a wedding where I didn't know the bride, groom, or family.

ORLANDO BLOOM.

Maybe Charlize just wanted some attention and encouraged this story. Maybe they don’t care.

Before the wedding, Bloom's PR was claiming he and Bezos were good friends. Yeah, right

[quote] Was the Duchess of Sucksass there?

Not during Wimbledon.

Maybe Bezos likes Bloom’s weird prehensile dong and wants to involve him in whatever the hell he and that ugly woman get up to.

[quote]I wonder if any of them had family or “before” friends in attendance.

I think I read that Bezos's parents were there.

I read that the foam party was for her son's 19th birthday, but that sounds like a cover. I mean how many of his college-aged friends got flown to Venice for it?Just odd.

I've not read anything about Bezos' relationship with his children. One poster on one of these wedding threads said that he continuously felt up Sanchez when they were out dinner with his children. I can't recall of a link was provided.

[quote] Maybe Bezos likes Bloom’s weird prehensile dong

Bezos totally looks like a cock sucker.

I think Dirty Sanchez is his Beard.

Tom Brady looks like he sucks cock, too.

And Oprah eats pussy.

Bezos is a lot like Trump. Very thin skin and wants to be "loved" by celebrities he doesn't even know and it really bothers him when someone doesn't kiss it. I wonder if hrs as vengeful as Trump. Charlize better be careful. I'm only half kidding.
